Picking Strawberries

The kids were patiently waiting to see cars parked at the strawberry patch that is down the road from us, until one day they finally saw cars and then begged to go pick strawberries. Great-Grandma De-De joined us one time, and Cousin Heather the second time.We made a few trips to the two strawberry patches by us and picked way too many strawberries.  After freezing quite a few and making a few batches of strawberry jam, I am done with strawberries for this summer.  The kids were great helpers with picking the strawberries and with cleaning them when we got home. I have two great helpers!
